30TH BATSON BLADE SYMPOSIUM, TANNEHILL IRON WORKS STATE PARK

We had an awesome time in the rain and the cold down in Alabama last weekend. Good times with good friends and as always many fine demonstrations.

While down there Steve Shackleford and Jim Batson's daughter Sara Beth managed to get an interview with Jim recorded. Steve says "What it lacks in professional quality Jim more than makes up for with his great answers and observations. He hopes we enjoy it, I know Butch and I did. here is the link to the video - http://www.blademag.com/knife-collecting/edwin-forrest-bowie-knife
